Chip Kelly is trying to clarify the role of Tom Brady in planning the RAIDERS game
Las Vegas Ryders Cell’s attack coordinator told reporters on Thursday that he did not play a plan with the team’s minority owner and the American Football Association broadcaster Tom Brady – at least “on a weekly basis” – despite a report during “Football Monday night” this week that suggested otherwise.
During the first quarter of Chargers-Drainers in Algiant Stadium, Peter Shregar mentioned from Espn From the margin that Chip Kelly told us that he speaks to Pradi two to three times a week. They pass through the movie. They are going through the game plan. “
After the match, the Raiders Pete Carroll coach described the report as “inaccurate” and said that while he was an agent with Brady regularly, these talks are “about life, football and whatever.”
Kelly was asked about the ESPN report During the availability of media Thursday. He repeated his response.
“I spent a lot of time talking to football with [Brady]”We haven’t talked about the game’s plans. We spent a lot of time throughout the summer, two spoilers … and we will only talk about the ball, as you know,” What did you like against this? “Really, when I use Tom, and I just use it as a resource,” hey, as you know, when I faced a defense of Mike Zimmer, what did you like to protect and play? ”
“But on a weekly basis, he does not plan with us or speak to us.”
Kelly later added: “Regarding the weekly game plans, for example, this is not a cooperation we do. I mean, he is also a busy man, so I did not even think about using it to do so, and I do not think you can, so – as you know, our employees do all of this.
“But he was young I could talk to football with him, just shot him,” hey, did you face a defense of two shepherds? And, with Tampa Two now runs, what’s your best thoughts about that?
The times have reached ESPN for comments from the Schrarag or the network on this topic. The network representative refused to comment.
During the Schragrant report, “Night Night Football” showed a live snapshot of Bardi sitting in RAIEDERS coach and wearing headphones. Kelly told reporters on Thursday that he believed that Brady did the same during the Reders match last month against San Francisco 49ers, and also at the Allegiant Stadium.
“But he does not speak to the coaches when there is,” Kelly said. “I think it’s just – he watches football.”
Brian McCarthy, chief spokesman for the US Football Association, said in a statement on Tuesday that Brady did nothing wrong.
“There are no policies that prevent the owner from sitting in the coaches booth or wearing a headphone during a game,” McCarthy said. “Brady was sitting in the cabin as a limited partner.”
Brady faces a number of restrictions imposed on the American Football Association for what he is allowed to do as a broadcaster, given his double position as a minority in the team. Last season, Brady was the first in both roles, and he was prohibited from attending the weekly production meetings during which Fox team met with coaches and players before this week’s match.
This restriction has been reduced to this season.
“Tom is still banned from going to a team for practices or production meetings,” McCarthy said in his statement. “He may attend production meetings remotely, but he may not personally attend the team or hotel facility. He may also hold an interview outside the site with a player as he did last year several times, including Super Bowl.
“Of course, as with any production meeting with the broadcast teams, it is up to the club, coach or players to determine what they say in those sessions.”
